Tammy Faye on gay marriage

• Homophobia

The cult of the ex-Mrs. Jim Bakker has always baffled me.

Daniel A. Kusner Dallas Voice:

In her new book, I Will Survive … And You Will, Too! Tammy Faye Messner offers T-shirt-like slogans about overcoming hardships. These cutesy little tidbits are called “Tammy-isms,” which match her baby-voiced approach to life. After a recent phone interview with the former Queen of the Electric Church, one Tammy-ism seemed to ring especially true: “People are like tea bags — if you want to find out what’s inside them, just drop them in hot water.”

“I don’t think there should be gay marriages. I think that marriage is between a husband and wife. I think the Bible decided that many years ago. I feel sorry for the gay people, but I think that there can never really be a marriage between gay people. That’s just my opinion and a billion other people’s,” she says.

So-called gay icon Tammy Faye goes on record as ‘disagreeing’ with gay community, says Bible is against same-sex marriages

Just imagine having the nerve to disagree with 'billions' of people.

Ha - you got that right! Does Tammy know that 'billions' of people (if my calculations are correct) think she is going straight to hell? I wonder if she signed a copy for former co-host Jm J. Bullock. [25/100]

I know this is had to write this letter on this issue about Gay marry. I believe the marry states a man and a woman what God created for humanity. I know not to judge. I have a question. It's judging no one, but how does God feel about this in the world we are living in? Would God be happy what we are doing? I have just for people to think about what God wants us to do.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Tammy Faye on gay marriage. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
